Very nice. Love it all!

Wow! I must say you did a wonderful job with the update. It looks great! Are you planning on putting a new window treatment on the window? A plantation shutter could really finish the room off and help bring that original feel of the home into the space.

Thanks so much for your comments.. I both love the windows for their character however agree with you about it needing something more. I now have four pots of herbs in the window that seem to soften the space.

Amazing transformation!

Elegant solution. Love the lighting.

Love it!!! Really really great :)

I do really like the character of the window in black as well. It really pops in your kitchen. If you have an Ipad or Iphone you can download an app by Hunter Douglas for Free called "The Art of Window Dressing" and it allows you to take a photo of the window and place any kind of Hunter Douglas window treatment on the window to get an idea of what it looks like in the space. I would recommend trying it out if you can because then you'll have a really good idea of what it would look like with something on there.

Simply BEAUTIFUL!

Wow! I love this kitchen!! What did you use for the countertops?

Good job!

Really thoughtful remodel, and it shows. Beautiful.

The countertops are a natural stone called cardosa. It looks like soapstone with slight veining however is harder and more like a honed slate. They have been holding up well and there are no stains, chips or scratches, however I am pretty careful and would not put a hot pot directly on the surface.

Wow, beautiful!

Fabulous - Just beatifully done

Very cool!

REALLY gorgeous. Love the lit corner cabinets, and the light hanging in front of the window. Is the blueness of the window just the time of day? Lighting? What causes that?

i just love your kitchen remodel. it's stunning. what kind/brand of window did you use? is it iron?? and i vote for keeping the window exposed. it's just beautiful.

"tudor"

what kind of paint and color are the kitchen cabinets? Love the makeover.

You did a great job! Very warm and inviting!!

The photo was taken at twilight to highlight both the steel casement windows and cabinet lighting. The steel windows are original to the home (1929) and in every room. The architect designed apartment buildings in NYC, and used many of the same commercial specifications and materials for the homes in this early suburban development. My design vision for the home is that of an urban pre-war apartment.

Wow!! Nice job and you really did capture the flavor of the home. I bet it is nice to work in too. Sometimes compact is great if you have lots of counter space and good custom storage solutions. Finished very well! Congratulations!

Lovely. Sparkling. Fits the style and age of the house. Great work.

Beautiful transformation! I especially love your upper cabinets and would like to know if the black edge framing the glass is part of the cabinet? I'm in favor of keeping the window exposed but might consider a natural woven roller shade.

The paint color is Sherman Williams alabaster. The metal insets were custom made by the cabinetmaker. They were inset into the door front in two separate flat planes with the glass in the middle, sort of like a sandwich. My idea was to reference the steel casement windows. Hope this helps..

that is a great reno of a small kitchen that now looks large :)

amazing! I love the lighting too!

Awesome!

I love what you've done here. Beautiful!
